GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
I.
Eligibility Requirements for Use of Form SF-3.
This instruction sets forth registrant requirements and transaction requirements for the use of Form SF-3. Any
registrant which meets the requirements of I.A. below (“Registrant Requirements”) may use this Form for the
registration of asset-backed securities (as defined in 17 CFR 229.1101(c)) under the Securities Act of 1933
(“Securities Act”) which are offered in any transaction specified in I.B. below (“Transaction Requirements”)
provided that the requirements applicable to the specified transaction are met. Terms used in this Form have the
same meaning as in Item 1101 of Regulation AB.
A. Registrant Requirements. Registrants must meet the following conditions in order to use this Form
SF-3 for registration under the Securities Act of asset-backed securities offered in the transactions specified in
I.B. below:
1. To the extent the depositor or any issuing entity previously established, directly or indirectly,
by the depositor or any affiliate of the depositor (as defined in Item 1101
of Regulation AB (17 CFR 229.1101)) is or was at any time during the twelve calendar months and any portion
of a month immediately preceding the filing of the registration statement on this Form required to comply with
the transaction requirements in General Instructions I.B.1(a), I.B.1(b), I.B.1(c), and I.B.1(d) of this Form with
respect to a previous offering of asset-backed securities involving the same asset class, the following requirements shall apply:
(a) Such depositor and each such issuing entity must have filed on a timely basis all certifications required by I.B.1(a);
(b) Such depositor and each such issuing entity must have filed on a timely basis all transaction agreements containing the provisions that are required by I.B.1(b), I.B.1(c), and I.B.1(d); and
(c) If such depositor or issuing entity fails to meet the requirements of I.A.1(a) and
I.A.1(b), such depositor or issuing entity will be deemed to satisfy such requirements for purposes of this Form
SF-3 90 days after the date it files the information required by I.A.1(a) and I.A.1(b).
Instruction to General Instruction I.A.1: The registrant must provide disclosure in a prospectus that is part of
the registration statement that it has met the registrant requirements of I.A.1.
2. To the extent the depositor or any issuing entity previously established, directly or indirectly,
by the depositor or any affiliate of the depositor (as defined in Item 1101 of Regulation AB (17 CFR 229.1101))
is or was at any time during the twelve calendar months and any portion of a month immediately preceding the
filing of the registration statement on this Form SF-3 subject to the requirements of section 12 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78l or 78o(d)) with respect to a class of asset- backed securities involving the same
asset class, such depositor and each such issuing entity must have filed all material required to be filed regarding
such asset-backed securities pursuant to section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78m or 78o(d)) for
such period (or such shorter period that each such entity was required to file such materials). In addition, such
material must have been filed in a timely manner, other than a report that is required solely pursuant to Item
1.01, 1.02, 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 4.02(a), 6.01, or 6.03 of Form 8-K (17 CFR 249.308). If Rule 12b-25(b) (17
CFR 240.12b-25(b)) under the Exchange Act was used during such period with respect to a report or a portion
of a report, that report or portion thereof has actually been filed within the time period prescribed by that rule.
Regarding an affiliated depositor that became an affiliate as a result of a business combination transaction during such period, the filing of any material prior to the business combination transaction relating to asset-backed
securities of an issuing entity previously established, directly or indirectly, by such affiliated depositor is excluded from this section, provided such business combination transaction was not part of a plan or scheme to
evade the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. See the definition of “affiliate” in Securities
Act Rule 405 (17 CFR 230.405).
B. Transaction Requirements. If the registrant meets the Registrant Requirements specified in I.A.
above, an offering meeting the following conditions may be registered on Form SF-3:
1. Asset-backed securities (as defined in 17 CFR 229.1101(c)) to be offered for cash where the
following have been satisfied:
(a) Certification. The registrant files a certification in accordance with Item 601(b)(36)
of Regulation S-K (§ 229.601(b)(36)) signed by the chief executive officer of the depositor with respect to each
offering of securities that is registered on this Form.
(b) Asset Review Provision. With respect to each offering of securities that is registered
on this Form, the pooling and servicing agreement or other transaction agreement, which shall be filed, must
provide for the following:
(A) The selection and appointment of an asset representations reviewer that is not
(i) affiliated with any sponsor, depositor, servicer, or trustee of the transaction, or any of their affiliates, or (ii)
the same party or an affiliate of any party hired by the sponsor or the underwriter to perform pre-closing due
diligence work on the pool assets;
(B) The asset representations reviewer shall have authority to access copies of any underlying documents related to performing a review of the pool assets;
(C) The asset representations reviewer shall be responsible for reviewing the underlying
assets for compliance with the representations and warranties on the pool assets, and shall not otherwise be the
party to determine whether noncompliance with representations or warranties constitutes a breach of any contractual provision. Reviews shall be required under the transaction documents, at a minimum, when the following conditions are met:
(1) a threshold of delinquent assets, as specified in the transaction agreements, has
been reached or exceeded; and
(2) an investor vote to direct a review, pursuant to the processes specified in the
transaction agreements, provided that the agreement not require more than: (a) 5% of the
total interest in the pool in order to initiate a vote and (b) a simple majority of those interests casting a vote to
direct a review by the asset representations reviewer;
(D) The asset representations reviewer shall perform, at a minimum, reviews of all assets
60 days or more delinquent when the conditions specified in paragraph C are met; and
(E) The asset representations reviewer shall provide a report to the trustee of the findings
and conclusions of the review of the assets.
Instruction to I.B.1(b).
The threshold of delinquent assets shall be calculated as a percentage of the aggregate dollar amount of delinquent assets in a given pool to the aggregate dollar amount of all the assets in that particular pool, measured as
of the end of the reporting period. If the transaction has multiple sub-pools, the transaction agreements must
provide that (i)the delinquency threshold shall be calculated with respect to each sub- pool and (ii) the investor
vote calculation shall be measured as a percentage of investors’ interest in each sub-pool.
(c) Dispute Resolution Provision. With respect to each offering of securities that is registered on this Form, the pooling and servicing agreement or other transaction agreement, which shall be filed,
must provide for the following:
(A) If an asset subject to a repurchase request, pursuant to the terms of the transaction agreements, is not resolved by the end of a 180-day period beginning when notice of the request is
received, then the party submitting such repurchase request shall have the right to refer the matter, at its discretion, to either mediation or third-party arbitration, and the party obligated to repurchase must agree to the
selected resolution method.
(B) If the party submitting the request elects third-party arbitration, the arbitrator
shall determine the allocation of any expenses. If the party submitting the request elects mediation, the parties
shall mutually determine the allocation of any expenses.
(d) Investor Communication Provision. With respect to each offering of securities that
is registered on this Form, the pooling and servicing agreement or other transaction agreement, which shall be
filed, must contain a provision requiring that the party responsible for making periodic filings on Form 10-D
(§ 249.312) include in the Form 10-D any request received during the reporting period from an investor to
communicate with other investors related to investors exercising their rights under the terms of the transaction
agreements. The disclosure regarding the request to communicate is required to include no more than the name
of the investor making the request, the date the request was received, a statement to the effect that the party
responsible for filing the Form 10-D has received a request from such investor, stating that such
investor is interested in communicating with other investors with regard to the possible exercise of rights under
the transaction agreements, and a description of the method other investors may use to contact the
requesting investor.
Instruction to I.B.1(d). If an underlying transaction agreement contains procedures in order to verify that an
investor is, in fact, a beneficial owner for purposes of invoking the investor communication provision, the verification procedures may require no more than the following: (1) if the investor is a record holder of the securities
at the time of a request to communicate, then the investor will not have to provide verification of ownership, and
(2) if the investor is not the record holder of the securities, then the person obligated to make the disclosure may
require no more than a written certification from the investor that it is a beneficial owner and
one other form of documentation such as a trade confirmation, an account statement, a letter from the broker or
dealer, or other similar document.
(e) Delinquent assets. Delinquent assets do not constitute 20% or more, as measured by
dollar volume, of the asset pool as of the measurement date.
(f) Residual value for certain securities. With respect to securities that are backed by
leases other than motor vehicle leases, the portion of the securitized pool balance attributable to the residual
value of the physical property underlying the leases, as determined in accordance with the transaction agreements for the securities, does not constitute 20% or more, as measured by dollar volume, of the securitized pool
balance as of the measurement date.

Instruction I.B.1. where those securities represent an interest in or the right to the payments of cash flows of
another asset pool and meet the requirements of Securities Act Rule 190(c)(1) through (4) (17 CFR
230.190(c)(1) through (4)).
II.
Application of General Rules and Regulations.
A. Attention is directed to the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act, particularly
Regulation C thereunder (l7 CFR 230.400 to 230.499). That Regulation contains general requirements regarding the preparation and filing of registration statements.
B. Attention is directed to Regulation S-K (17 CFR Part 229) for the requirements applicable to the
content of the non-financial statement portions of registration statements under the Securities Act. Where this
Form SF-3 directs the registrant to furnish information required by Regulation S-K and the item of Regulation
S-K so provides, information need only be furnished to the extent appropriate. Notwithstanding Items 501 and
502 of Regulation S-K, no table of contents is required to be included in the prospectus or registration statement
prepared on this Form SF-3. In addition to the information expressly required to be included in a registration
statement on this Form SF-3, registrants also may provide such other information as they deem appropriate.
C. [Reserved]
D. Information is only required to be furnished as of the date of initial effectiveness of the registration statement to the extent required by Rule 430D. Required information about a specific transaction must be
included in the prospectus in the registration statement by means of a prospectus that is deemed to be part of
and included in the registration statement pursuant to Rule 430D, a post-effective amendment to the registration
statement, or a periodic or current report under the Exchange Act incorporated by reference into the registration
statement and the prospectus and identified in a prospectus filed, as required by Rule 430D, pursuant to Rule
424(h) or Rule 424(b) (§230.424(h) or §230.424(b) of this chapter), provided, however, that information specified by Item 14(b) of this Form or Rule 424(g) (§230.424(g) of this chapter) shall be placed in an exhibit to one
of these documents other than a periodic or current report under the Exchange Act incorporated by reference
into the registration statement. Each posteffective amendment or final prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b),
in either case filed to provide required information about a specific transaction, must include in the exhibit required by Item 14(b) of this Form or Rule 424(g) (§230.424(g) of this chapter), respectively, the maximum
aggregate amount or maximum aggregate offering price of the securities to which the posteffective amendment
or prospectus relates and each such prospectus must indicate in such exhibit that it is a final prospectus for the
related offering.
III.
Registration of Additional Securities Pursuant to Rule 462(b).
With respect to the registration of additional securities for an offering pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act, the registrant may file a registration statement consisting only of the following: The facing page; a
statement that the contents of the earlier registration statement, identified by file number, are incorporated by
reference; required opinions, consents, and filing fee-related information; the signature page; and any pricerelated information omitted from the earlier registration statement in reliance on Rule 430A that the registrant
chooses to include in the new registration statement. The information contained in such a Rule 462(b) registration statement shall be deemed to be a part of the earlier registration statement as of the date of effectiveness of
the Rule 462(b) registration statement. Any opinion or consent required in the Rule 462(b) registration statement may be incorporated by reference from the earlier registration statement with respect to the offering, if:
(i) Such opinion or consent expressly provides for such incorporation; and
(ii) such opinion relates to the securities registered pursuant to Rule 462(b). See Rule 439(b) under the
Securities Act [17 CFR 230.439(b)].
IV.
Registration Statement Requirements.
Include only one form of prospectus for the asset class that may be securitized in a takedown of asset-backed
securities under the registration statement. A separate form of prospectus and registration statement must be
presented for each country of origin or country of property securing pool assets that may be securitized in a discrete pool in a takedown of asset- backed securities. For both separate asset classes and jurisdictions of origin
or property, a separate form of prospectus is not required for transactions that principally consist of a particular
asset class or jurisdiction which also describe one or more potential additional asset classes or jurisdictions, so
long as the pool assets for the additional classes or jurisdictions in the aggregate are below 10% of the pool, as
measured by dollar volume, for any particular takedown.

2. Table 1: Newly Registered and Carry Forward Securities Table and Related Disclosure.
A. Newly Registered Securities.
For securities that are initially being registered on this form, provide the following information.
i. Fees to Be Paid and Fees Previously Paid
a. Fees to Be Paid.
Provide the information Table 1 requires under the heading “Newly Registered Securities” for the line item “Fees to Be Paid” for securities to be registered for which filing fees have not already
been paid in connection with the initial filing of this form or a pre-effective amendment.
b. Fees Previously Paid.
Provide the information Table 1 requires under the heading “Newly Registered Securities” for the line item “Fees Previously Paid” for securities to be registered for which filing fees have already
been paid in connection with the initial filing of this form or a pre-effective amendment.
ii. Fee Calculation or Carry Forward Rules.
a. Rule 457(a).
For a fee calculated as specified in Rule 457(a) (§230.457(a) of this chapter), enter
“457(a)”.
b. Rule 457(o).
If relying on Rule 457(o) under the Securities Act (§230.457(o) of this chapter) to register
securities on this Form by maximum aggregate offering price, enter “457(o)”. You may omit from any such row
the Amount Registered and the Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Unit.
c. Rule 457(s).
If relying on Rule 456(c) and Rule 457(s) under the Securities Act (§§230.456(c) and
230.457(s) of this chapter) to defer a fee, enter “457(s)” and see Instruction 2.A.iii.b.
d. Other.
If relying on a rule other than Rule 457(a), (o), or (s), enter “Other”.
iii. Other Tabular Information.
a. Provide the following information in the table for each unique combination of security
type and title of each class of securities to be registered as applicable except as otherwise provided by Instruction 2.A.iii.b:
1. The security type of the class of securities to be registered;
2. The title of the class of securities to be registered;
3. The amount of securities being registered expressed in terms of the number of
securities, proposed maximum offering price per unit and resulting proposed maximum aggregate offering price,
or, if the related filing fee is calculated in reliance on Rule 457(o), the proposed maximum aggregate offering
price;
4. The fee rate; and
5. The registration fee.
b. Where securities are being registered on this Form SF-3, Rule 456(c) under the Securities Act (§230.456(c) of this chapter) permits, but does not require, the registrant to pay the registration fee on
a pay-as-you-go basis, and Rule 457(s) under the Securities Act (§230.457(s) of this chapter) permits, but does
not require, the registration fee to be calculated on the basis of the aggregate offering price of the securities to
be offered in an offering or offerings off the registration statement. If a registrant elects to pay all or a portion
of the registration fee on a deferred basis, Table 1 must cite Rule 457(s), as required by Instruction 2.A.ii.c, and
identify the classes of securities being registered, in tandem with their respective security types, and the registrant must state, in response to this instruction, that it elects to rely on Securities Act Rules 456(c) and 457(s),
but Table 1 does not need to specify any other information with respect to those classes of securities. When the
issuer amends Table 1 in accordance with Rule 456(c)(1)(ii) (§230.456(c)(1)(ii) of this chapter), the amended
Table 1 must include either the dollar amount of securities being registered if paid in advance of or in connection with an offering or offerings or the aggregate offering price for all classes of securities referenced in the
offerings and the applicable registration fee.
iv. Pre-Effective Amendments.
If a pre-effective amendment is filed to concurrently (i) increase the amount of securities of one or more
registered classes or add one or more new classes of securities; and (ii) decrease the amount of securities of one
or more registered classes, a registrant that did not rely on Rule 457(o) to calculate the filing fee due for the
initial filing or latest pre-effective amendment to such filing may recalculate the total filing fee due for the
registration statement in its entirety and claim an offset pursuant to Rule 457(b) in the amount of the filing fee
previously paid in connection with the registration statement. This recalculation procedure is not available,
however, if a pre-effective amendment is filed only to increase the amount of securities of one or more registered classes or add one or more new classes. A pre-effective amendment that uses this recalculation procedure
must include the revised offering amounts as securities to be registered for which filing fees have not already
been paid in connection with the initial filing of this form or a pre-effective amendment for purposes of Table 1.
If you use this recalculation procedure, separately disclose that you are using it and expressly reference this
Instruction 2.A.iv.
B. Carry Forward Securities.
If relying on Rule 415(a)(6) under the Securities Act (§230.415(a)(6) of this chapter) to carry forward to
this registration statement unsold securities from an earlier registration statement, enter “415(a)(6)” in the table
and provide, in a separate row for each registration statement from which securities are to be carried forward,
and for each unique combination of security type and title of each class of securities to be carried forward, the
following information:
i. The security type of the class of securities to be carried forward;
ii. The title of the class of securities to be carried forward;
iii. The amount of securities being carried forward expressed in terms of the number of securities (under the column heading “Amount Registered”) and the amount of the maximum aggregate offering
price, as specified in the fee table of the earlier filing, associated with those securities (under the column heading “Maximum Aggregate Offering Price”) or, if the related filing fee was calculated in reliance on Rule 457(o),
the amount of securities carried forward expressed in terms of the maximum aggregate offering price (under the
column heading “Maximum Aggregate Offering Price”);
iv. The form type, file number, and initial effective date of the earlier registration statement from
which the securities are to be carried forward; and
forward.
v. The filing fee previously paid in connection with the registration of the securities to be carried
C. Totals.
i. Total Offering Amounts.
Provide the sum of the maximum aggregate offering price for both the newly registered and carry
forward securities and the aggregate registration fee for the newly registered securities.
ii. Total Fees Previously Paid.
Provide the aggregate of registration fees previously paid for the newly registered securities.
iii. Total Fee Offsets.
Provide the aggregate of the fee offsets that are claimed in Table 2 pursuant to Instruction 3.
iv. Net Fee Due.
Provide the difference between (a) the aggregate registration fee for the newly registered securities from the Total Offering Amounts row; and (b) the sum of (i) the aggregate of registration fees previously
paid for the newly registered securities from the Total Fees Previously Paid row; and (ii) the aggregate fee offsets claimed from the Total Fee Offsets row.
3. Table 2: Fee Offset Claims and Sources.
A. Terminology.
For purposes of this Instruction 3 and Table 2, the term “submission” means any (i) initial filing of, or
amendment (pre-effective or post-effective), to a fee-bearing document; or (ii) fee-bearing form of prospectus
filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act (§230.424 of this chapter), in all cases that was accompanied by a
contemporaneous fee payment. For purposes of these instructions to Table 2, a contemporaneous fee payment
is the payment of a required fee that is satisfied through the actual transfer of funds, and does not include any
amount of a required fee satisfied through a claimed fee offset. Instructions 3.B.ii and 3.C.ii require a filer that
claims a fee offset under Rule 457(b) or (p) under the Securities Act (§230.457(b) or (p) of this chapter) to
identify previous submissions with contemporaneous fee payments that are the original source to which the fee
offsets claimed on this filing can be traced. See Instruction 3.D for an example.
B. Rule 457(b).
If relying on Rule 457(b) under the Securities Act (§230.457(b) of this chapter) to offset some or all of
the filing fee due on this registration statement by amounts paid in connection with earlier filings (other than this
Form SF-3 unless pursuant to Instruction 2.A.iv) relating to the same transaction, provide the following
information:
i. Fee Offset Claims.
For each earlier filed Securities Act registration statement relating to the same transaction from
which a fee offset is being claimed, provide the information that Table 2 requires under the heading “Rule
457(b)” for the line item “Fee Offset Claims”. The “Fee Offset Claimed” column requires the dollar amount of
the previously paid filing fee to be offset against the currently due fee.
Note to Instruction 3.B.i.
If claiming an offset from a Securities Act registration statement, provide a detailed explanation of the basis for
the claimed offset.
ii. Fee Offset Sources.
With respect to amounts claimed as an offset under Rule 457(b), identify those submissions with
contemporaneous fee payments that are the original source to which those amounts can be traced. For each
submission identified, provide the information that Table 2 requires under the heading “Rule 457(b)” for the
line item “Fee Offset Sources”. The “Fee Paid with Fee Offset Source” column requires the dollar amount of
the contemporaneous fee payment made with respect to each identified submission that is the source of the fee
offset claimed pursuant to Rule 457(b).
C. Rule 457(p).
If relying on Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act (§230.457(p) of this chapter) to offset some or all of
the filing fee due on this registration statement with the filing fee previously paid for unsold securities under an
earlier filed registration statement, provide the following information:
i. Fee Offset Claims.
For each such earlier filed registration statement from which the registrant is claiming a filing fee
offset, provide the information Table 2 requires under the heading “Rule 457(p)” for the line item “Fee Offset
Claims”. The “Fee Offset Claimed” column requires the dollar amount of the previously paid filing fee to be
offset against the currently due fee.
Notes to Instruction 3.C.i.
1. Provide a statement that the registrant has either withdrawn each prior registration statement or has terminated or completed any offering that included the unsold securities under the prior registration statements.
2. If you were not the registrant under the earlier registration statements, entering information under the heading “Rule 457(p)” pursuant to Instruction 3.C.i affirms that you are that registrant’s successor, majority-owned
subsidiary, parent owning more than 50% of the registrant’s outstanding voting securities, or other registrant
eligible to claim a filing fee offset. See the definitions of “successor” and “majority-owned subsidiary” in Rule
405 under the Securities Act (§230.405 of this chapter).
ii. Fee Offset Sources.
With respect to amounts claimed as an offset under Rule 457(p), identify those submissions with
contemporaneous fee payments that are the original source to which those amounts can be traced. For each
submission identified, provide the information Table 2 requires under the heading “Rule 457(p)” for the line
item “Fee Offset Sources”. The “Fee Paid with Fee Offset Source” column requires the dollar amount of the
contemporaneous fee payment made with respect to each identified submission that is the source of the fee offset claimed pursuant to Rule 457(p).
D. Fee Offset Source Submission Identification Example.
A filer:
• Initially files a registration statement on Form S-1 on 1/15/20X1 (assigned file number 333123456) with a fee payment of $10,000;
• Files pre-effective amendment number 1 to the Form S-1 (333-123456) on 2/15/20X1 with a
fee payment of $15,000 and the registration statement goes effective on 2/20/20X1;
• Initially files a registration statement on Form S-1 on 1/15/20X4 (assigned file number 333123467) with a fee payment of $25,000 and relies on Rule 457(p) to claim an offset of $10,000 related to the
unsold securities registered on the previously filed Form S-1 (333-123456) and apply it to the $35,000 filing fee
due and the registration statement goes effective on 2/15/20X4.
• Initially files a registration statement on Form S-1 (assigned file number 333-123478) on
1/15/20X7 with a fee payment of $15,000 and relies on Rule 457(p) to claim an offset of $30,000 related to the
unsold securities registered on the most recently effective Form S-1 (333-123467) filed on 1/15/20X4 and apply
it to the $45,000 filing fee due.
For the registration statement on Form S-1 with file number 333-123478 filed on 1/15/20X7, the filer can satisfy
the submission identification requirement when it claims the $30,000 fee offset from the Form S-1 (333-123467)
filed on 1/15/20X4 by referencing any combination of the Form S-1 (333-123467) filed on 1/15/20X4, the preeffective amendment to the Form S-1 (333-123456) filed on 2/15/20X1 or the initial filing of the Form S-1 (333123456) on 1/15/20X1 in relation to which contemporaneous fee payments were made equal to $30,000.
One example could be:
• the Form S-1 (333-123467) filed on 1/15/20X4 in relation to the payment of $25,000 made with
that submission; and
• the pre-effective amendment to the Form S-1 (333-123456) filed on 2/15/20X1 in relation to
the payment of $5,000 out of the payment of $15,000 made with that submission (it would not matter if the filer
cited to this pre-effective amendment and/or the initial submission of this Form S-1 (333-123456) on 1/15/20X1
as long as singly or together they were cited as relating to a total of $5,000 in this example).
In this example, the filer could not satisfy the submission identification requirement solely by citing to the Form
S-1 (333-123467) filed on 1/15/20X4 because even though the offset claimed and available from that filing was
$30,000, the contemporaneous fee payment made with that filing ($25,000) was less than the offset being
claimed. As a result, the filer must also identify a prior submission or submissions with an aggregate of contemporaneous fee payment(s) of $5,000 as the original source(s) to which the rest of the claimed offset can be
traced.
4. Table 3: Combined Prospectuses.
If this Form includes a combined prospectus pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act of 1933 (§230.429 of
this chapter), provide the information that Table 3 requires for each earlier effective registration statement that
registered securities that may be offered and sold using the combined prospectus. Include a separate row
for each unique combination of security type and title of each class of those securities. The amount of securities
previously registered that may be offered and sold using the combined prospectus, must be expressed in terms
of the number of securities (under column heading “Amount of Securities Previously Registered”), or, if the
related filing fee was calculated in reliance on Rule 457(o), must be expressed in terms of the maximum aggregate offering price (under column heading “Maximum Aggregate Offering Price of Securities Previously Registered”).
Note to Instruction 4.
Table 1 should not include the securities registered on an earlier effective registration statement that may be offered and sold using the combined prospectus under Rule 429.
Item 15. Undertakings.
Furnish the undertakings required by Item 512 of Regulation S-K (17 CFR 229.512).
